And I was clean and they played calm music like rain sounds etc. read more

Rushed and poor quality. They did no cuticle or cleanup work that you typically get elsewhere for the same price. Not great coverage on the sides, back into nail base, nor front tip, and she got mad when I asked if she could get more on the sides where there was a blank strip. Gel manicure was peeling and chipping 4 days later. Not nice experience. read more

I've been a regular customer for years. They're friendly and each nail tech does a great job. So convenient in Maplewood Village. I love designs and Lee comes up with great ideas if I don't bring her an idea of my own that visit. read more

My sister's been coming to this place for a little over a year and she raves about it. Was so happy to finally visit with her! Kim was amazing -- so welcoming and friendly! The gel mani ($35) she did was as good as it gets.. she even gave me a beautiful, hand-painted sparkly heart on each pointer finger! What a kind touch! I got a back massage ($13) for a few mins while I was getting my mani -- it was just what the doctor ordered after my boxing class the night before. Grace was so warm and sweet! Nommy did my pedi ($30) was patient (and boy, did she had her work cut out for her!). I was so satisfied with how attentive to detail she was! Overall I felt like a million bucks and whenever I'm in town and in need of nail care, I will return! 5 stars. Visit! You won't regret it. read more

Leo Nail - Nail Salons Near Me - Maplewood, New Jersey

Quick and easy! They always take good care of you and always willing to service you when you don't have an appointment

Not sure why there are some negative reviews. I went in yesterday for the first time and was pleased that it was quite clean, not too many people, did not feel rushed and was very happy with my mani/pedi. I think I will be coming here from now onwards. The workers were professional. read more

Got pedicure about 2 weeks ago and it was awful. The technician cut my cuticle so badly that it caused a horrible infection. For days, I cleaned it, soaked it, neosporin, etc. A week later i had to go to a podiatrist and have the infection cut out of my big toe. I couldn't walk for a week and now I am on antibiotics for 10 days and can't even put on a sneaker it hurts so badly. Not to mention that I also got a gel manicure - which was bizarre, sloppy and took WAY longer than any gel manicure I've ever had. The whole experience was awful and I would recommend going anywhere else. read more

After years of okay to very not okay service at Leo Nails, I had the absolute worst experience and will never return. Had to wait for over 40 minutes for a painful pedicure, then was asked if I could sit under the dryers and wait for a manicure because - and I quote - "a regular and more important customer needs a manicure". The customer service is terrible and rude, the beauty services are painful and subpar. I hope by sharing this that others will stay away. No amount of convenience will bring me back. read more

The manicure took about five minutes -- she cut my nails, did a quick file then slapped on one coat of polish -- and done. This is a good place if you need something quick and cheap, but not if you want something along the lines of most professional salons. read more

Horrible Service! Looks like alot of new faces and did a horrible job with my powder nails and with nail polish all around the edges,I got told-"It will come off when you take a shower." I was charged $105 for this. DONT GO TO LEO NAILS! Save your money and go somewhere else! read more

Tools not sanitized between clients. Massage therapist does not wash her hands between clients. They cut my cuticles so I bled and then attempted to use those same tools on the person sitting next to me. Copped a huge attitude when I confronted them. Rude manager. read more

Where do I even begin? Management is a mess. Got a gel manicure on 7/18 that fell off the next day while I was in the city. Called them on 7/19 to request a refund, which apparently they don't do. They over-charged me by $10, as well. When I called to complain, they refused to offer a refund, and said it was because "my nails were probably too short for a gel manicure", which if that was the case, they should have refused service in the first place. Go to Kim's, they're way better and across the street. Vibes were HORRIBLE, service was unfriendly and management was incredibly rude. Will not be going back here after years of giving them my service. read more

I'll admit my previous review was a bit harsh. I've been here twice within the last few months and I've gotten my gel manicures with Joanne. She's so sweet and meticulous! An appointment is encouraged but not mandatory. I highly recommend Joanne and will only get my nails done with her at Leo's. read more

I've given this place second and third chances and this past Friday was my final straw. I got a gel manicure which felt extremely rushed, I wasn't even able to pick my own color. I was basically bullied into whatever the manicurist wanted to do who also butched my several times. This isn't the first time I've come out with bloody cuticals. I definelty will not be going back and told them as so. read more

Unprofessional and unethical nail salon. My daughter and I had the worst experience here. The service was horrible...my gel mani literally lifted off of each nail the next day!!! My daughter's nail extensions lasted no more than 3 days before they lifted! Read the all reviews (google and Yelp), take a look at the pictures and do yourself a favor by going somewhere else. read more

Personally, I don't think the place is anything special. I had an appointment, changed it to an earlier time, arrived and ended up waiting for a very short period of time as it was quite busy so I was confused when they said "okay" to me changing it to my new rims but whatever. Nails came out well but the place is a bit outdated and felt a bit cramped in my opinion. I only went here because I had a pedicure gift certificate so it's not really a place I'd go out of my way for when I live in the next town over. read more

Very clean and the gel polish lasts 2 or more weeks. No designs available, just manicures and pedicures.

Went for a mani-pedi, ended up with a foot and a shoulder massage. Mickey was skilled and strong and hit all the right spots. Very kind as well. Place is clean and friendly. Will be back. read more

AWFUL! If you're looking for SNS - go elsewhere!!!! I called to see if they did SNS manicures. They said yes, so I made an appointment. The manicure was very strange to say the least. It took far longer than any other SNS I've had and we finally get to the end and my nails looked totally tattered. I went back and forth with the technician as I've had SNS manicures for a year now and they've never resulted so poorly. In the end she put a gel topcoat on which immediately peeled. Save your time and money and go somewhere that actually knows how to do SNS. read more

Got a pedicure today. It was glorious. Included exfoliating scrub, lotion, hot towel, and hot rock message. Along with all the usual pedicure procedures. Also a small shoulder rub at the drying station. I will definitely be back. What a lovely experience. I was treated well. My technician was professional, speedy, and didn't chat with other technicians the entire time. Pedicure was $25 Try this place you like it. read more

Leo Nail - The price list as of 6/2016 - Nail Salons Near Me - Maplewood, New Jersey

I used to be a customer of Kim's Nails, down the street from Leo's but they started to slack off so I switched to Leo's. Leo's owners are very nice and initially when I started coming here, the nail techicians were all very attentive. In addiiton to a regular mani and pedi they rub your feet with a hot stone and end both a mani and pedi with a 2-minute shoulder massage. However, in the last few months, Leo's has really taken a nose dive in my opinion. They no longer pay attention to the customers, but instead rush through the manicures and pedicures, often times cutting into the skin. Some don't speak English and this makes it so much harder to communicate what you want done. Lastly, their appointments mean nothing - you'll still wait. Parking is hard in Maplewood and if you have a limited amount of time this isn't fair. I found a better place in Millburn where I started going. Good-bye Leo's. read more

Went here for a pedicure. I didn't like the fact that the pedicure chairs are so close to one another. I felt extremely uncomfortable! They did have plastic partitions that came half way down but I still felt too close to the next person. The ladies that were doing the pedicure constantly spoke in Spanish to each other. I find that was a bit rude when you're performing a service on a client. I wasn't at all pleased with the outcome of the polish job, but I wasn't willing to have her do it over. What I do like is that they use the plastic inserts inside of the foot basins. I find that very sanitary. Lastly, the owners were very welcoming and kind. As far as parking, there is ample parking behind the store in the lot. Oh, and everyone wore face masks and there was plenty of hand sanitizer available. read more

time and time again I make appointments and have to wait 20-30 mins for someone to be available. What's the point of the appointment? they do give a good mani/pedi but i feel like it's super disrespectful to never be on time for appointments. It's not brain surgery and today is the last day I will be going! read more

Loved the nails extensions. My nails look so natural ! I'll definitely be coming back. Pedicure ... Well the massage was great, but not the best pedicure. read more

I received a HORRIBLE chemical burn and then skin was removed and damaged with aggressive exfoliating. I still can't walk on my heels and will need to see a dermatologist. It is THEIR responsibility to train unlicensed employees with the proper use of callous remover chemicals. They handled the situation poorly and ignored it. They offered a free pedicure next time? I still can't put socks on or walk without pain. I should not have been charged to start with. read more

This place has horrible service and the owner is not nice. Both owner and workers do not communicate well. My manicure and pedicure was not that great in quality. I will not come here again. read more

Absolute worst experience of my life. Rude service, deliberate twisting and pinching of nails (it increased after I complained), and different shape and shade of color on my nails. I would describe more but it gets me angsty just thinking about it. In the end, owner slammed a $10 in my hands as a "sorry" which I left behind because I couldn't fathom taking money, where genuine remorse would have sufficed. Even though this is the most convenient place for me to get my weekly mani pedi, I will literally never go back again. read more

These people do not know how to train their employees. My lady did an awful job and asked to pay $50 after the worst manicure. I do not recommend this salon. The manager was super nice but needs better employees! read more

I came here early in the day, so I was the first customer. I find that whenever I do anything super early on a weekday my experience is almost always positive. Leo is a perfect example. I went in, no wait, and was done in about 30 minutes. Service was very friendly. The place is spacious, clean and the pedicure chair was very comfortable. This was a thorough pedicure. So no short cuts. I paid $25. I'm not sure if that's pricey or standard for the area. Either way I was okay with the price. Oh, and I guess all pedicures come with a shoulder/neck massage. I was not aware of this until the woman came up behind me as I sat to dry my toes. A little awkward at first but it was an okay massage. I will definitely return. read more

When I want a manicure, pedicure or massage, this is where I go. The place is large and very clean. The place never smells of chemicals like a lot of other places. I like their massaging pedicure chairs too. I bring my daughter from time to time and they always treat her nicely. I usually get chair massages but the times I've had the massage in the private room were great. The guy who does them really knows what he's doing (unlike the guy at Maplewood Nail across the street). They also have a loyalty program which keeps me going back- just remember to bring your card. read more

The service was good but what turned me off was after we left the owner came outside after we crossed the street and yelled "Hey are you going to pay?". We both told her we each paid with our debit cards. She put her head down and as she walk away she mumbled sorry. I feel her approach was very unprofessional and rude. I will never go back there, nor will I recommend them. read more

This is my favorite nail spot. I love to do gel manicures with Cindy. The pedicures are a hit or miss but most of the time I'm happy.

Very happy, went here to get a nail fixed that got messed up from another salon. The technicians were very friendly and accommodating. They didn't make me pay anything! Hopefully I can return for a full gel manicure soon! read more

My manicure has lasted a month ! Not a chip in sight. I got a gel and it hasn't lifted in any spots. It's time to back only because my nails have grown.... thanks Leo! read more

I have been a regular patron at this establishment for about a year. Every two weeks I go for my regular gel- fill, and for many months I was satisfied- they got the job done and their prices were comparable to others in the area. Well, about 3 months ago one of the nail "technicians" sliced my finger with the buffing tool and it hurt so badly I physically recoiled in pain. No apology, she just grabbed my hand and continued on. When she applied the gel, it was so thick and gloopy that it literally burned my nail beds when curing under the UV light. It was terrible. Since then, I have refused service from this particular woman, and have received service from a couple of other women at the salon. The past few times I have been in, I have received service by a woman named Sue who is adequate at best. This past time however was the last straw. Once again, the buffing tool not only cut my finger open, but took a CHUNK OF SKIN off of my finger. She then applied some blue liquid to it which burned and stung for the next 2 hours. She dropped the nail file multiple times to the floor and then went to continue filing my nails without replacing it..... Ummm, no. My actual gel manicure was terribly applied with visible streaks in every nail. Despite the fact that she removed a chunk from my finger, they charged me the full price of $55 and pressured me into making an appointment for my fill-in in two weeks. I will not return, and if you value the skin on your hands, you shouldn't come here either read more

This place is hit or miss. It's local for me so the convenience of it will keep me going back, but it's not always the best. Pedicures are usually fine, and I have not had a bad experience. However, the last time I went I also got a gel manicure. The technician did a nice jobs on the nails, but seemed to be rushed and in a bad mood. The shoulder massage she gave me as my nails were under the UV light for the last time was rough. At times she pressed so hard I really wanted to tell her to just stop. Next time I will because it was getting to be uncomfortable, which is the not the point of someone rubbing your back. But that wasn't enough to make me write this review initially. It wasn't until one of my nails chipped (6 days after I had them done), that caused me to write this review. All gel manicures I have received before last a solid 2 weeks before they chip or break or look messy from growing out. See photo. More chipped after this, at the one week mark, and it went downhill from there. I'll give them another chance for the gel in the future and hope this was just a one-off less than mediocre experience. read more

Leo Nail - Chipped gel manicure 6 days after having it done. - Nail Salons Near Me - Maplewood, New Jersey

I have to say for this nail salon to look so nice and professional they are the complete opposite. Their prices are way too high and they overcharge you for every little thing. I took my bestfriend here who speaks fluently several languages and she translated and told me they were speaking about me. Over all this place does decent nail work and are very rough and rude. I haven't stepped foot in this establishment ever again read more

I was disappointed by our last visit here. Perhaps they changed owners or something but a manicure shouldn't hurt that much. The person who did my pedicure was sweet but the woman doing my hands seemed rushed and arguing with someone in the store. She could see that I had healing scrapes on several fingers but still roughly pulled them and sanded a few nails to the bed, she also left a few cuticle edges bleeding. If I was fluent in Vietnamese I would have called her on it, but we will be going to an alternative salon in the future. read more
